How good is the suspension when using for jogging? Does the jogging front wheel has suspension?

I think it works good. It doesn't have suspension, but I use it in a city environment in Stockholm and even crossing pavements is no major issue. Just be a bit careful and help the jogger a bit and it will work fine.

Yes, the front wheel on this jogger does pivot or you have the capability to lock in it the straight position.

I would recommend going with the GT if you plan to run with it. I have lightly jogged here and there with it and it has done fine. She is correct though, this particular one isn't for jogging.

No ... You really need to buy the separate jogging wheel if you are going to do some serious (or even light) running. Even if you just run very lightly, the swivel wheels swivel like crazy.... It doesn't work. However...it is a wonderful jogging stroller and turns like nothing... So I still recommend it for running, just get the alssparate wheel. It is very easy to pop them on and out to switch them up

No. It wobbled with a fast walk. Not a good choice for jogging. I sent it back.

Despite the brand name "Baby Jogger", this isn't a jogging stroller, so it can be a bit bumpy on rough terrain. I've "off-roaded" a few times, but my younger baby has definitely given me some indignant looks about being bounced around!

I have not used it as a jogger yet. It has been very stable as a trailer providing I ride sensibly. I believe it will be fine as a jogger if jogging occurs on paved decent surfaces and with out abrupt changes of direction. Any jogger is subject to sensible use. I would buy this product again.

Not sure about that one but I used it to replace front wheel on jogging stroller and it is great

This jogger is not heavy! By far one of the litest I've seen. I guess if you load it down it could get heavy. Companies just haven't perfected the joggers. They all are design flawed. But this jogger is far from heavy

This is going to sound stupid but i'll say it anyway. The front end of the stroller is so light that you can push down on the handle and lift the stroller off the ground while you jog. I do it all the time because of the wobbly non-lockable front wheel. I'm not fond of it. But it is what it is. Other than that, I think the stroller is a good one. Just can't have kids that are too big (about 4 yrs old is max) because the belts don't allow for large kids, nor is there much leg room. My 4 yr. old boy (sorta big for his size) and slightly tiny/thin 2-1/2 yr. old girl are shoulder-to-shoulder in the stroller. Good thing they don't fight too much.....

I'm not sure bc I haven't used that one. I'm also not a serious runner. The front wheel on this bob does not swivel. I really love this stroller bc it handles rougher terrain and is lighter weight. I just wish I had gotten one with the front swivel

It's not really designed for running. The wheels are hard plastic, not rubber. It's more a jogging style look as opposed to function

Since it has 4 wheels and they aren't all that large, I don't think this is really a good jogging stroller. Baby Jogger is simply the brand name, and they make lots of non-jogging strollers (including this one).

Ive used it twice for running. It does not have suspension but the tires being inflatable make for a nice soft ride. There is no built in suspension and I don't know why other comments say there is. I have 2 Doxies at 20lb each and they ride fine. Again, it is a soft ride because of the wheels.

I would say yes, it can be used as a jog stroller. Just lock the front wheel or it will wiggle a lot and force the stroller to make sudden stops. I always lock front wheel when walking fast/jogging or on walking on rough terrain.

I would not recommend if for jogging... wheels are too small for that kind of activity and although it steers well for its weight you wouldn't be able to do it single handed. As for the tires... i'll second the previous post and add they are HORRIBLE! I hope someone is listening at Mountain Buggy...

Actually yes... we already had a stroller with similar shape, a jogger, and is the same thing the front wheel doesn't swivel, and that is actually the safest thing, once you start running is very stable.
